The first fix was shoddy, they broke again in the same exact spot - I won't be going back to that shop again. It is extra lame because I paid way more to get them fixed the first time and the second time seems to be sticking A LOT better. I have worn the boots several times since getting them back from OLD WORLD COBBLER and LEATHER REPAIR.
Alex (the third generation of OLD WORLD COBBLERS) told me that if they broke again he would take care of it, no cost but he also seemed pretty confident he would never see those adorable boots in his storefront again.
